Sasuke Uchiha in Harry Potter

Mercenaries I

Classes continued as usual; Sasuke had already caught up on all the material from the weeks he missed and had prepared for the next training session in the Room of Requirement.

Upon returning to the common room, he saw the upcoming Quidditch matches posted on the notice board:

Saturday: Slytherin vs. Gryffindor
Sunday: Ravenclaw vs. Gryffindor

As he left the common room, he felt the familiar sensation of being followed. Ignoring it, he continued on to the Owlery, knowing it would be empty at that hour. As he climbed the stairs, his pursuer remained hidden. Upon arriving, he grabbed a parchment and quill and began to write. The house-elf approached to see what he was writing, but before it could read, it felt a grip around its neck.

Sasuke: Did you really think I wouldn't see you?

The elf trembled at the sight of Sasuke's red eyes.

Sasuke: Why are you following me?

Due to his master's orders, the elf couldn't reveal that information, even under torture.

Sasuke was aware of this and placed the elf under a genjutsu. In a trance, the elf could not resist. Sasuke seized the elf, channeled chakra into his feet, and sprinted to the Forbidden Forest for interrogation.

In the Room of Requirement, the six were training under the emo's supervision. Daphne and Draco were instructing Luna, Ginny, Astoria, and Zacharias on non-verbal spells.

They began practicing, but soon realized they still had a long way to go. Afterward, they started running around the room while being observed by the emo.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Back in the Forbidden Forest:

Sasuke: What's your name?

Elf: Kreacher.

Sasuke: So, Kreacher, who sent you?

Kreacher: Harry Potter, sir.

Sasuke: So it was Potter.

Sasuke thought, It would be easy to accuse him, but he could just send another elf to do the same.

Sasuke: Kreacher, when Potter asks about me, give him false answers. Say you didn't see anything suspicious. If he asks where I am, say I'm in the library or on the Quidditch pitch. Alternate your answers.

Kreacher: Understood.

Sasuke released him, leaving the Kreacher in the Forbidden Forest. When the trance broke, he wouldn't remember anything, but Sasuke's orders would remain embedded in his mind.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Back in the common room, the six were exhausted but happy to hear the bell signaling the end of the session.

Sasuke: That's all for today. Oh, before I forget... He grabbed a bag and pulled out a Firebolt, handing it to Luna. For when your house faces Gryffindor.

Luna: Thank you, Sasuke. The team will appreciate the gesture.

Ginny: Did you give a Firebolt to them last year too?

Sasuke: Yes.

Ginny: Why? We lost because of that.

Sasuke: I lent it to level the playing field for both teams. This way, the match wouldn't be decided by the brooms, but by each team's skills and strategies. It makes the game much more interesting, don't you think?

Everyone nodded except Ginny, who internally complained.

In the end, everyone returned to their common rooms. Sasuke decided to stay behind, and after everyone left, the clone disappeared.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The weekend arrived, and Sasuke went to Professor McGonagall's office as early as possible.

He knocked on the door, greeted her, and informed her he would be using the fireplace, grabbed some Floo powder, and shouted, "Ministry of Magic."

Sasuke stepped out of the fireplace at the Ministry and was greeted by passing people. As he put on his identification badge, he noticed all the employees, from the highest to the lowest ranks, were wearing them.

He passed through the control center and made his way to the Auror office.

Auror: Good morning, sir.

Sasuke waved and entered Rufus's office.

Rufus: Good morning, Mr. Uchiha.

Sasuke: Good morning, Mr. Scrimgeour. Were there any attacks?

Rufus: There were two thwarted attacks in Diagon Alley, on Block 24, and another in London near the Metropolitan Market. We captured six Death Eaters.

Sasuke: Great. Did you gather any information about their base of operations?

Rufus: Nothing yet, but I must commend you on the mirrors. It was an excellent idea and is helping us prevent attacks.

Sasuke: Yes, I expected that. Remember not to disclose the source for any reason.

Rufus: Understood. When we receive any reports, the Aurors are informed only of the location and the type of occurrence, nothing more.

Sasuke: Right. I'll speak with the Minister. Stay alert for any information from our allies.

Sasuke left and headed to Minister Bones's office. On his way, he crossed paths with Umbridge, who was holding some papers. She wanted to speak with him, but Sasuke said he was in a hurry.

Upon entering the office, just like in Scrimgeour's, Sasuke cast protective and silencing spells.

Sasuke: Good morning, Minister.

Amelia: Good morning, Mr. Uchiha. Let me congratulate you on the idea. We are now managing the situation.

Sasuke: It's good to hear that, but we can't let our guard down. We captured some Death Eaters, but none of their allies, like giants, werewolves, or Dementors.

Amelia: You're right, but it's hard not to be pleased when we're ahead.

Sasuke: Was the gold sent to my house?

Amelia: Yes.

Sasuke: Excellent. How did it go at Gringotts?

Amelia: It was a success. They had a warehouse full of Muggle money used for lighting the fireplaces.

Sasuke: So the purchase must have been cheap.

Amelia: Yes, but what will you do with all that Muggle money?

Sasuke: Simple. I'll use it to provide an advance to the mercenaries. Also, we need to buy vehicles to transport them and provisions.

Amelia was trying to understand more, but as a witch, she only saw value in gold and precious stones. She still couldn't grasp the importance of Muggle paper money.

Sasuke: Well, I'm off. I'm going to check on the elves. I'll work with the 20,000 Galleons you sent. Tomorrow I'll arrive early so we can meet with the mercenaries. According to the report, they should arrive around 10 AM, and the plane will land at Hangar No. 18.
